MISS KATE ETnLD's LECTURE LAST EVEN
ING.

The interest attaching to such sab
isct as last nights lecture al the Opera
House, should have drawn 6 larger
crowd than was present. About 800
persons, the major part being females,
we're seated as auditors when Miss
Field appeared on the stage. and was
introduced by ex-G Governor Squire.
Her lecture was characterized By an
earnest sympathy for the moral degra-
dation Of her Mormon sisters, and By
a. earnest q repngnance fer her Nor
mon brothers.
Her sketches Of Mormon life a. seen
By her we're terse, II not graphic, and
the audience showed, on many ocoa-
sicns, their manifest approval OF her
abilities.
She enlisted the ssmpathies Of her fe-
male bearers In showing the vretched-
ness Of the Mormon wife; aroused the
indignation Of her male listeners In de-
plotting the cunning brutality Of the
Mormon prophets and their male fol-
lowers in general.
MoFmonism vas In deadly conflict
with the principles Of the United States
Government; Mofmonism was first and
last to the Mormon; everything was
sacrificed TO the interests Of the Ut uRch
Of Latter Day Saints.
Miss Field varied her lecture with
anecdotes OF men, women, and things;
and evinced during its progress some Of
her striking characteristics. To cool
sarcasm and q genial eynicism, Miss
Field adds q touehingly deep pathos.
she IL fluent without veEbosity, eloquent
with Just Q sufficient amount Of per-
suasion to make things convincing. 4
brilliant talker, and, without doubt, an
sutocratic oonveFsationaliBt, she guides
a melodious though mot powerful voice
with a grace Of style and delivery
peculiarly attractive. Having full
command Of her subject, her ineisive
and pungent remarks In denounolng the
Government for les federation OF Mef-
monism we're duly appreciated. The
lecture, a. q whole, was worthy Of the
lecturer, although We could have wished
q little more energy in the delivery. At
10 O'Clock the audience dispersed With
subject matter for discussion for time
until they get tired Of u.

c.u,e NJ Dirty Finger Nai,s.

People who are nice to q scriptural point
about the care Of their bodies, wonder
sometimes despairlngly how it is that
their finger nails get so dirty. They may
not haveibee out of doors or engaged in
any manual occupation, and yet few
hours after thorough cleansing of their
nails they have black streak under tho
points and the hand brush must be used
again. They will be surprised to learn
that their hair is the cause Of this often
sive collection Of dirt. There are few
persons who do not often put their fingers
tostheira hair ITO replace stray lock, If n
woman. ior4if s'man to.throw it back from
his forehead Or run his fingers through It,
Each time that the hand touches the hair
some of the oil adhcres to the fingers and
the nails, and this attracts and holds the
dirt and dust whose particles float in the
purest atmosphere. Anybody can provo
this statement by watching the finger
mills for IL day after the hair has been
shnmpooed and noting how much longer
they remain clean than they will two days
after the barber has rubbed all of the oil
out of the scalp.-Manicure in Globe

Why Bowery Guns Arc Chained.

A;young man, who wanted to try his
skill in Bowery shooting gallery, noticed
as. he brought the weapon to biz. shoulder
that small steel chain dangled from the
front end Of tho stock and disappeared
behind the counter, where It was found to
be secured to substantial beam.
"You have some tough customers here,
I suppose" said the young man to the
proprietor.

's'Not that anybody knows of herea-
way"
'sWhy do you. chain the guns there?"
because I'm not fond Of ibloodshed.
1t isn't tho tough that concerns me; it's
the fool. The fools come in here in bunch
es. Each one of the bunch grabs gun
and cocks it:yI Then something attracts
their attention In the street, and around
they turn, gun in hand, and muzzle point
ed fair at the crowd Of people constantly
passing the door. Some one of the bunch
is sure to think the gun isn't loaded, or
that it can't be discharged except when
pointed at the target, and so aims 1t at
another Of the bunch, saying: Look out,
I'm going to shoot you AT least, that's
what happened before Lohained the guns
and it was only luck that no one was
killed. If the guns could only be made
to shoot backward under: such circum-

Starved Into q Verdict.

Jurymen are better off in these times
than in the good old days, when it was the
law to endeavor to starve them into YER
dict. 1t is bad enough now to be put to
loss of time and money, with little or in
adequate recompense, without being
starved or fined in the bargain.
In the early part of the reign Of Henry
VIII Lord Chief Justice Reed tried IN
action when on circuit in which the jury
were locked up, but before giving their
verdict had eaten and drank, which they
oil confessed. This being reported to the
Judge, he fined them each heavily and
took their verdict.
In Hilary term, sixth, Henry VIII, the
case came up before the full court of
queens bench on joint motion to set
aside the verdict on the ground Of in
formaNty of trial, the jury having eaten
when they should have tasted, and next
remit the fines under the peculiar circum-
stances of the case. The jury averred
that they had made up their minds in the
case before they ate, and had returned
into court, with q verdict but, finding the
lord chief justice had "run out to see a
Fray and not knowing when he might
como back they had refreshment. The
court confirmed both the verdict and the
fines.
In "Dyer's Reports q case is reported
of jury who retired to consider their
verdict; and when they came back the
bailiff informed the judge TINT some Of
them (which he could not depose) had been
feeding while locked up. Both bailiff and
jury were sworn, and the pockets of the
s,t,1,o rod
that they all had about them "pippins, !"
of Which "some of them confessed they
had eaten, and the others said they had
not" All were severely reprimanded,
and those who had cuten were fined
twelve shillings each, and those who had
not eaten were fined six shillings each,
for that they had them in their pockets
